Newsmaker: Globe story touts UMMS ‘star quality’

A front-page story in the Boston Globe touts UMass Medical School’s “star quality” in describing recent recruits to the faculty from the ranks of the world’s top scientists.

“In a state that prides itself on its medical and scientific prowess, UMass is perhaps its best-kept secret. The medical school is undergoing a tremendous growth spurt that has been little noticed by the general public but has caught the attention of those at the cutting edge of scientific research,” wrote reporter Carolyn Y. Johnson.
